“Transitioning to Consultancy with Savills was a significant step forward in my career, and I couldn’t have asked for a better recruiter than Stuart to guide me through the process. From the outset, Stuart demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication. He provided me with detailed insights and literature about the role and working environment at Savills, which were instrumental in helping me prepare for the interview and understand the nuances of the transition.
Stuart’s support didn’t stop at providing information—he was always available to answer questions, offer advice, and ensure I felt confident at every stage of the process. His in-depth knowledge of the industry and his close partnership with Savills gave me a clear sense of what to expect and made the entire experience seamless.
Thanks to Stuart, I’ve been able to take on a role that truly represents career progression, and I am thriving in my new position at Savills. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stuart to anyone considering a move in their career. His expertise and genuine commitment to supporting candidates make him an outstanding recruiter.”
“My working relationship with Talent Motion has been two-fold, initially engaging with them as a candidate and in recent years, I have called upon their services to source exceptional talent for us. I started my career as a maintenance technician before working into the role of a design consultant. I spent 12-years within pure design consultancy without an idea of the wider work and input building services engineers have on buildings/properties beyond the design. I was fortunate to be placed into a world leading real estate company – under Talent Motion – who required internal engineering consultants to not only design services systems, but to provide a full engineering building consultancy service to real estate clients. This was new to me away from pure design but has changed my life for the better as I have the multi skills and strings to my bow to be flexible and adaptable for any requirement now. I became capable of competently offering technical due diligence for property acquisition, provide diagnostic reports for faults/errors and omissions that impact landlords, tenants or other property users, undertake lease reviews and dilapidations assessments, undertake maintenance and condition reports and plant replacement life strategies and more! Within a building consultancy you become the perfect all-rounder. You can specialise in one area of engineering consultancy but have the confidence and knowledge to service your clients in all other service lines and be the complete go-to Consultant. Working in building consultancy away from just pure design offers ultimate flexibility and freedom to be the engineer you didn’t know you wanted to be. Fast forward a few years and I am now the one seeking individuals who are (like I once was) looking to take that step into the Building Consultancy world. Talent Motion have repeatedly stepped up to the mark and sourced the standard of talent, allowing our business to grow and flourish, consistently understanding our needs and always acting with the utmost professionalism throughout the process.”
